               Located in the Village of Rye Brook in Westchester County, New York, the property consists of two retail buildings and one retail/professional office building integrated into one complex.  Some of the property’s 78 tenants include D’Agostino’s, CVS, Chase Bank, Ace Hardware, Starbucks, Chipotle, Chop’t, Quest Diagnostics and SoulCycle.

$580 million refinancing of Miracle Mile Shops on Las Vegas Strip arranged by HFF


Miracle Mile Shops on the Las Vegas Strip

Britney Spears
PITTSBURGH, PA – HFF announced today that it has arranged a $580 million refinancing for the Miracle Mile Shops, a 501,522-square-foot mall located at the epicenter of the Las Vegas Strip.  Miracle Mile Shops is one of the country’s elite performing malls with top tier tenant sales.

               HFF worked exclusively to secure the financing on behalf of the ownership group comprised of a joint venture between Tristar Capital and RFR Holding LLC.  Robert K. Futterman & Associates serves as the project marketing and leasing advisor for the ownership group. 

The 10-year, fixed-rate CMBS loan was led by Cantor Commercial Real Estate, with JP Morgan and Citigroup as participants.  

Claudia A. Steeb
Loan proceeds were used to refinance existing loans and provide funds for additional improvements, including the exciting renovation of the retail area surrounding the PH Live Theatre that will soon be home to Britney Spears’ new Las Vegas show.

               In 2004, the Tristar-RFR ownership group acquired Miracle Mile Shops and immediately embarked on a $130 million renovation and rebranding program.  The mall is 95 percent leased to more than 180 tenants, including many with sales exceeding $1,000 per square foot.

 Notable tenants include H&M, Urban Outfitters, GUESS, Gap, Cabo Wabo, Tommy Bahama and Quicksilver.  The property also features a 4,903-space parking garage and five on-site theatres.  Miracle Mile Shops is further anchored by Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino and Elara, a Hilton Grand Vacations Hotel.

David Edelstein
“We have positioned Miracle Mile Shops as one of the top five malls in the country with tenant sales at double the national average and over 26 million shoppers per year,” said David Edelstein, president of Tristar Capital.

               “On ownership’s behalf, HFF evaluated numerous financing alternatives to secure the optimal recapitalization terms, keeping in mind the significant value creation opportunities ahead for the mall.  In the end, the financing provided us the desired flexibility and returns,” said Michael Fuchs, co-founder of RFR. 

The HFF team was led by managing director Claudia Steeb and executive managing director Manny de Zárraga, and included senior managing directors Barry Brown and Gerry Rohm, and managing director Bryan Ley.

Michael Fuchs
“Cantor’s creative structuring enabled them to be selected by ownership as the primary lender for the transaction.  This is believed to be the largest loan closed by Cantor to date,” added Steeb.

MVP REIT Partnership Completes Acquisition of Six Parking Facilities in Maryland, Missouri, Tennessee and Florida Locations

  
Scott Trade Center, St. Louis, MO

Las Vegas, NV (Sept. 9, 2013) – MVP REIT Inc. announced today that, together with its partners, it has completed the acquisition of the final tranche in a $13.5 million portfolio consisting of five surface parking lots and a single parking garage located in Maryland, Missouri, Tennessee and Florida.

Mike Shustek

The final tranche was comprised of two parking facilities in Baltimore and St. Louis, acquired for $4.3 million on September 4, 2013.

The Baltimore property is a 6-story parking garage, located in the downtown Central Business District. The 86,520-square-foot, automated facility is situated beneath a 23-story office building, and is utilized by local area businesses near the city’s harbor.

 Additionally, the 240-parking space facility is surrounded by a number of professional and financial offices, as well as a number of nearby restaurants.    

Busch Stadium, St. Louis, MO
The St. Louis property is an approximately 1.22-acre surface parking lot, located in the heart of the city center. The 55,153-square-foot lot has 179 parking spaces and is accessible by both eastbound and westbound traffic on Spruce Street. 

Located on the western portion of the St. Louis Central Business District, the property is a short distance from Scottrade Center, Busch Stadium, City Hall, the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Department, and the St. Louis Public Library.

St. Louis, MO City Hall
“These centrally-located properties are an ideal fit for the MVP REIT portfolio, and are in keeping with our strategy to acquire income-producing parking and storage facilities that may provide our investors with a potential hedge against inflation,” said Mike Shustek, president and CEO of MVP REIT.

MVP REIT, along with Vestin Realty Mortgage I Inc. (“VRMI”) and Vestin Realty Mortgage II Inc. (“VRMII”), formed two separate limited liability companies to purchase the two parking facilities, which are each owned 44 percent by VRMI, 51 percent by VRMII and 5 percent by MVP REIT. Percentages were based on each party’s capital contributions.

St. Louis, MO Public Library
In addition to the acquisition of St. Louis and Baltimore parking facilities, the entire $13.5 million, six parking facility portfolio, included the acquisition of a Fort Lauderdale parking lot in late July, the acquisition of a parking lot in downtown Kansas City and two parking lots in downtown Memphis in late August.

Trepp August Payoff Report: Percentage of Loans Paying at Maturity Stays above 70% Despite Modest Dip




NEW YORK, NY -- According to the Trepp August Payoff Report, the percentage of loans paying off on their balloon date registered 72.1% last month. This is down two points from 74.1% in July, which was the highest reading in almost five years. August's rate is the second highest level during that time period.

At 72.1%, the August payoff percentage is well above the 12-month moving average of 63.3%. (This number sums the averages of each month and divides by 12, there was no balance weighting across the months.) 

By loan count (as opposed to balance), 72.2% of loans paid off. The 12-month rolling average by loan count is now 65.1%.

The recent trend of higher payoff rates over the last few months, especially relative to 2012, is not surprising. In 2012, many of the maturing loans were five-year balloons from the 2007 vintage. The majority of loans reaching their maturity now are 10-year balloons that were originated in 2003.

Developer Ugo Colombo Proposes New Miami Beach Oceanfront Condo Tower

  
Bristol Tower condos, Brickell Avenue, Downtown Miami, FL

   
Ugo Colombo
MIAMI, FL -- With at least 160 new condo towers already proposed for South Florida, veteran developer Ugo Colombo - whose previous projects include the luxurious Bristol Tower, Epic West and Santa Maria in Greater Downtown Miami - is involved with a group planning a new condo building on an oceanfront site in Miami Beach as the region's real estate market shows signs of recovering from the dramatic downturn of 2007, according to a new report from CondoVultures.com.

The push for new condo construction comes as the boom-era unit inventory is dwindling in South Florida

The new condo project - dubbed the Beach House 8 - is slated to be developed in the 3600 block of Collins Avenue at a time when nearly 20 towers with more than 1,080 units have been proposed for the Miami Beach market as of September 6, 2013, according to the Preconstruction Condo Projects Database™ compiled by the licensed Florida brokerage CVR Realty™.

Valerio Morabito
Overall in South Florida, developers are now proposing more than 21,850 units for the tri-county region of coastal Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach as of September 6, 2013, according to the report.

The Miami Beach coastal market is defined as South Pointe Drive North to 87th Street, and the Atlantic Ocean west to the Intracoastal Waterway, according to the Condo Vultures® Official Condo Buyers Guide To South Beach™.

In Miami Beach, the new project's developer - Ocean Grande Properties LLC with Italian developer Valerio Morabito as managing member - is proposing to build a 10-story condo building with eight units that would be constructed just north of the proposed Versailles On The Ocean, Faena House, and the Residences at Miami Beach Edition condo towers, according to marketing literature.

Planned Versailles on the Ocean condos
Miami Beach, FL
Colombo - who led the unsuccessful effort to secure the $1 billion contract to redevelop the Miami Beach Convention Center - is listed as a member of the "team" developing the Beach House 8 in marketing literature for the project.
